Some of the greatest tech companies in the world originated from garages. Byte Orbit? We had our start in a bedroom in Durbanville. Our very first office was on a smallholding with cats, dogs, horses and three developers. We were understaffed at that stage and certainly tempted to teach the farm animals to code. Luckily, that wasn’t necessary as we eventually moved offices and expanded the team.Fast forward to 2012, when Amit and our now MD, Martin Ras, joined forces.

We’ve heard rumours about working 24/7 and eating lots of junk food during this period. Their dedication and hard work would lead to more office moves, new client partners, the launch of Byte Orbit Ventures, and a team of over 100 Orbiters in a glossy office in Century City.
